Okay, THIS is why I’m not going to do another one of these “challenges” for a while. Because of the amazingly terrible movie posters you get from the types of movies that I watch all the time otherwise. And the name! DREAM-MANIAC! Fucking brilliant.

A group of people gather at a house for a sleep-over party or something, and get killed one by one by a random woman who just decided to show up. In the end (SPOILER ALERT!), it turns out that the lady was just some random person who was sleepwalking, and I guess she kills people in her sleep. And that’s where the name comes from, and this is revealed about 15 seconds before the movie ends. So… that’s the reason. It’s not A Nightmare on Elm Street at all.

According to IMDb, the plot has something to do with a succubus and a “heavy-metal musician” making a deal, but, unless I’m completely remembering it wrong, that didn’t happen. At all. And she’s not a succubus, because she’s just some chick. And she doesn’t “feed” on the victims or anything like that, she just mostly stabs them. Stupid IMDb.
